Arsenic is known as one of the anode components that can help prevent anode passivation. This study challenges the proposed mechanism of acid generation in a boundary layer of the passive layer and aims to expand the effect of arsenic both before and after the generation of the passive layer. The novel mechanism proposed in this study explains why samples with higher arsenic content have a higher dissolution rate before the passive layer forms. It also accounts for the longer time to passivation values observed in higher arsenic-containing anodes. The proposed mechanism also describes the passive layer dissolution rate as a function of arsenic content. The study investigated the impact of arsenic on the passivation mechanism of copper anodes at different arsenic concentrations using chronopotentiometry (CP) and contact angle experimental methods. The CP and ICP results confirm that the time to passivation increases and the electrolyte cupric concentration rises as the anode arsenic content increases from 500 to 1500 ppm. The higher dissolution rate of the anodes containing more arsenic was attributed to their fine, dendritic structure and higher wettability before the formation of the passive layer. Interestingly, the fastest dissolution rate after the formation of the passive layer was observed in the 1000 ppm arsenic sample. This was attributed to the counter effect of the electrolyte on surface accessibility caused by the passive layer microstructure and the wettability of the anode surface.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":13872,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Electrochemical Science","volume":"20 10","pages":"Article 101115"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144571271","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review explores the revolutionary potential of biosensors: molecular sleuths that detect subtle variations in biomarkers, including IL-6, CYFRA 21–1, TP53, and miRNAs like miR-204 and miR-106b. These technologies, spanning electrochemical platforms, SPR detection, fluorescence systems, and advanced chromatography, redefine early cancer detection through their precision, speed, and cost-effectiveness. The review also spotlights innovations in bio-interface engineering, including graphene-enhanced electrodes and saliva-based diagnostics, which pave the way for non-invasive, personalized healthcare. Beyond the lab, biosensors promise to democratize early detection, empowering underserved communities with accessible, point-of-care diagnostics. The convergence of biosensor technology with artificial intelligence and multiplex detection heralds a paradigm shift in oncology, transforming esophageal cancer diagnostics from reactive to proactive.

Timely detection of ISC faults at their early stage can effectively prevent severe safety incidents, thereby ensuring the safe and stable operation of battery energy storage systems. To address this challenge, this study proposes a novel early ISC identification method for lithium-ion battery packs based on dynamic time warping (DTW) sequences and Gaussian mixture model (GMM) clustering. First, the median terminal voltage curve is derived from sorted terminal voltage measurements, serving as a reference representing the normal state of cells within the battery pack. Subsequently, sliding time windows are applied to extract subsequences of the median terminal voltage and individual cell terminal voltages. On this basis, the DTW sequences of each cell are computed and utilized as an indicator to characterize abnormal battery behavior, thereby amplifying the discrepancy between early ISC-affected cells and normal ones. Furthermore, an automatic early ISC fault detection model is developed using a GMM-based clustering algorithm to distinguish between normal and early ISC cells within the battery pack. Experimental validation and analysis under various early ISC fault scenarios with different severity levels demonstrate that the proposed method achieves accurate identification of early ISC cells when the short-circuit resistance is less than or equal to1000 Ω.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":13872,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Electrochemical Science","volume":"20 10","pages":"Article 101107"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144549963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address the corrosion failure of 7A09 aluminum alloy in propylene glycol coolant, this study systematically investigates the synergistic effects of temperature (50–80 ℃), pH value (4–9), and Cl^- concentration (30–90 mg/L) on the corrosion behavior of the aluminum alloy. A comprehensive approach was employed, integrating corrosion testing, electrochemical polarization curve measurements, surface morphology characterization via scanning electron microscopy, and surface composition analysis using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results showed that increasing temperature promotes the thermal oxidation of propylene glycol, resulting in the generation of organic acids and an exponential increase in the corrosion rate (I_corr reached 3040 nA cm⁻² at 80 ℃). Elevated Cl^- concentration significantly enhances the sensitivity of the passivation film pitting, with the corrosion current density rising by 24.3 times under 90 mg/L compared to the 30 mg/L conditions. A strongly acidic environment with pH= 4 induces acidic dissolution of the oxide film, whereas, under near-neutral conditions (pH=6–8), the aluminum passivation film synergizes with the Al₂O₃ oxide film to effectively reduce the corrosion rate.

In this study, natural phenolic extracts from <em>Beta vulgaris</em> L., specifically methanolic (ME), dichloromethane (MDE), ethyl acetate (EAE), and <em>n</em>-butanol (BE) extracts, were analyzed via HPLC-DAD and utilized as eco-friendly additives in zinc electroplating baths composed of ZnCl₂, KCl, and H₃BO₄, to improve the quality and corrosion resistance of zinc coatings on MS. Incorporation of these extracts into the plating bath significantly improved the quality of zinc deposits. The enhanced brightness and refined surface morphology observed through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and profilometry not only indicate the enhanced quality of the coatings but also suggest potential applications in industries where aesthetics and surface finish are important. Gravimetric corrosion tests and electrochemical evaluations, including potentiodynamic polarization (PP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), demonstrated that zinc coatings formed in the presence of Beta vulgaris L. extracts exhibited remarkable corrosion resistance compared to conventional coatings. In addition, density functional theory (DFT)-based calculations were performed to investigate the adsorption behavior and chemical reactivity of the main phenolic compounds identified. Theoretical results revealed that ellagic acid exhibits the highest chemical activity, highlighting its key role in improving deposition efficiency and corrosion protection.

In this study, an adaptive forgetting factor recursive least squares method (AFFRLS) is proposed based on the adaptive theory. The core idea is that the forgetting factor is adaptively adjusted according to preset adaptive formula of the voltage error.
